Kenya

I am a Kenyan citizen and the hurtful comments are just so immature and insensitive. You can't just judge a country without any knowledge of it. I have always wished to be called Kenya and I would love to name my kid after my country.

Kenya is also a diminutive of Russian masculine name Innokentiy. It's less common than Kesha.

The name Kenya was given to 324 girls born in the US in 2016.
More than 99.9 percent of people with the first name Kenya are female.

My name is Kenya. And that has been my name for over 55 years. I was named Kenya before the country became independent and was still a British protectorate. I am also white of Swedish descent. The name Kenya is actually Hebrew and does mean animal horn.
